Spencer Wells is a geneticist who travels the world taking DNA samples to understand human origins. He found that all human DNA can be traced back to Africa, where the San Bushmen were one of the earliest civilizations over 100,000 years ago. Wells began his research with the San Bushmen in southern or eastern Africa, whose Y-chromosomes trace back around 60,000 years ago. The document also discusses that there are only about 3,000 San Bushmen remaining today in Southern Africa, and that the Y chromosome is one way scientists can trace human genetic migration patterns out of Africa.
